‘Not your party member’: Mamata fires at PM Modi over ‘second seat’ dig

Published on Apr 02, 2021 04:08 pm IST

West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee hit back at PM Modi saying she would win the election from Nandigram. The Bengal CM said she doesn't need his 'suggestion' on contesting from any other seat. The TMC supremo was speaking at an election rally in Coochbehar's Dinhata. "I want to tell the prime minister to control his home minister first and then try to control us. We are not your party's members that you will control us," Mamata said. "I am not your party's member that you will suggest me to contest from another seat. I have contested from Nandigram and will win from there," she added. On Thursday, PM Modi had asked Mamata if she was filing nomination from another seat. The prime minister shot the question while addressing a rally in Howrah's Uluberia.
